More than likely, a 20 amp fuse would blow more frequently, or at least sooner than a 25 would under the same "problem" condition. The 25 amp fuse (vs. the 20 amp) is probably only "band-aiding" the anomaly situation when it does occur. It's quite possible that you have a bare, exposed piece of wire that is somehow rubbing on a grounded surface under the right conditions which, of course, blows the fuse. DD
